Tools & Capabilities Breakdown

Audio Analyzer Tools (6)

audio_info

Basic file info: duration, sample rate, sample count

spectral_features

Brightness, richness, loudness, texture, timbre (MFCCs), frequency band energy, spectral contrast, dynamic range, LUFS loudness, stereo field

harmonic_analysis

Key detection, pitch class distribution, tonnetz

rhythm_analysis
